Can’t help with the current situation but a thought for you and other that do a similar arrival strategy....we also usually come in in late the night before things “officially” begin. When we do, and are staying at a deluxe resort, we book that late arrival night at a value hotel like All Star Movies, etc. The price really is not that much different than something like the MCO Hyatt but the big advantage is that the next morning you just drop your bags with the bag drop folks at your value hotel. They will ship the bags to your new hotel and you can jump on transportation straight to the parks. When done at the parks, just head to your new hotel to check in. Your bags are at the valet waiting for you. Even when I have hotel points to use for the late arrival night, I’ll spend the $$ for a value hotel to take advantage of this. It is so convenient.
Enjoy your trip !!
